Maize is Coming to PC on December 1st

It was announced today by Finish Line Games, that Maize, an absurdist first person puzzler adventure with a corny twist, will be launching on Steam and the Humble Store on December 1st, 2016! What would happen if stalks of corn could walk? Talk? Crack jokes? You probably never considered it before, but now you’re starting to, aren’t you? Discover the answer, and get an earful of puns soon.

Check out the Release Date trailer of Maize, introducing the characters of the game:

“Maize is a first-person adventure game about what happens when two scientists misinterpret a memo from the U.S. Government and create sentient corn. And that last sentence is pretty much the least ridiculous thing about the game.

Explore an abandoned farm and a not-so-abandoned underground research facility as you uncover the mysteries around Maize, and possibly learn a bit about yourself along the way. Or maybe not.

With a colourful cast of characters and an absolutely absurd world, Maize offers up a unique experience that keeps the surprises coming. Seriously, they’re everywhere.

Maize will be released in Fall 2016, just in time for harvest.

Features

Immerse yourself and explore Maize’s fully-realized environment,featuring a cornucopia of areas to explore (see what we did there?)
Solve environmental puzzles that get more and more absurd the further you delve into the adventure
Uncover the secrets of Maize’s world, as you try and figure out what it is the corn really want, aside from a very good nap
Meet some friends and enemies along the way, which include a very small grumpy Russian robot bear and an unhinged corn stalk who’s a bit of a jerk

Maize will be available for $19.99 USD, on December 1st, 2016.
